2015 U2 Tour - General Discussion Thread V

[Hewson]

I still firmly believe they put TCB on the deluxe version in order to try to encourage physical sales after giving the standard album away free.

I'm assuming Willie Williams is still involved with this tour but I've not heard anything confirming that. Anyone know for sure? His diary posts are a blast to read,,,gives a nice feel of what its like to be on tour.

The Crystal Ballroom ?!!? That would be pretty bad ass to hear live.

His job title is 'creative' director... Yeah I can see that...

Holy shit, 1998, is that you?

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

Is there no chance they could also record something Friday? Record yesterday, back to Vancouver and then back on Friday?

Next to no chance.

Yesterday was filmed with a live studio audience. Doesn't make much sense for them to split the episode in half between two different audiences

 

[Yahweh_OMG]

Has Morleigh been choreographer in the past? Or does it mean she will dance again on MW?

 

[pepokiss]

Why would U2 (or whoever manages their social media accounts) delete all photos and videos from their instagram account?

Now it's just that video


Also: LARRY'S ELBOWS. One in a brace, the other one like an old lady's elbow. He's old now

 

[popacrobat]

They've...been old for awhile.

I fail to understand any reasoning for doing that.

how sad

Hi there,

This is not news from the 2015 tour, but the portuguese promoter that works with U2 has told in an interview today (blitz.pt) that U2 are arriving in Portugal in 2016... for indoor concerts! European tour from May to July, more than one night for sure in Portugal (he's saying that the only doubt now is how many nights in Lisbon), and probably called "Volcano Tour".

 

[trainmaniac]

And... the tour will start in Paris and May, and Lisbon will be one of the last venues... in July.

 

[popacrobat]

I can't imagine the tour name would change.

 

[prbiker15]

I can't imagine the tour name would change.

Why would it in the first place?

 

[gvox]

It won't.

LOLcano ftl

Sounds like some info that was kicked about last fall with the Lolcano tour name.

I think someone got trolled.
